Rodman to Treat Olympian and Parents

AMANDA BEARD, the 14-year-old Olympic swimming gold medalist, has an important event coming up today. She's going to a California Angels game with the flamboyant Chicago Bulls star DENNIS RODMAN and her parents.

Rodman offered to treat Beard and her family to an Angels game when both were in Atlanta. He also plans breakfast with his No. 1 Irvine fan. Her family isn't nervous about her encounter with the star who dyes his hair and is known to attend book signings in drag. ''We're not talking date here,'' said Beard's father, DAN BEARD. ''The whole family is going out.'' (AP)
